Keyserver receive failed when run a basic install.

mitu

Looks like an issue with your connection to the keyserver, same command works fine for me. When using the web interface, you need to add 0x to the key hash: http://keyserver.ubuntu.com/pks/lookup?search=0xDC9D77FF8208FFC51D8F50CCF1B030906A3B0D31&fingerprint=on&op=index

Please add some info about your setup, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

Hi @mitu

Thanks for your reply!
I can access the url you gave also with curl, but not with gpg.

Why would you try to access it with gpg ? I was just pointing out that the GPG key is available on keyserver.ubuntu.com. gpg has its own HTTP-like protocol to search/find keys (hkp), which is not working in your case, that's why I asked for more info about your setup.

@mitu

Because the error message I got here is the same with the message when I run a basic install.

gpg: keyserver receive failed: Server indicated a failure

And I think it is caused by this code in /home/pi/RetroPie-Setup/scriptmodules/system.sh
https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/blob/4.7.1/scriptmodules/system.sh#L77-L80

    if ! gpg --list-keys "$__gpg_signing_key" &>/dev/null; then
        gpg --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys DC9D77FF8208FFC51D8F50CCF1B030906A3B0D31
    fi

Indeed, that's what's triggering the issue. The problem is why is this not working in your environment. Do you have any firewall in place, any web filtering application that may be altering or blocking the traffic from your Pi to the keyserver ?

WinterM

@mitu

And because of the issue above, I got this error.
![[5CYNZI0FKVOJ`W4J5[JLB.png

There's no firewall or web filtering application in my home and I use a DNS server 8.8.8.8.
If there are some, even this could not success.

Can you run, from the command line:

gpg --debug-level guru --verbose --keyserver hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com:80 --recv-keys DC9D77FF8208FFC51D8F50CCF1B030906A3B0D31

and post the output on pastebin.com ?

WinterM

@mitu

Oh! I found a setting miss in /etc/resolv.conf
My bad, and sorry for bothering.

By the way, I got this log by your command with a wrong setting.

Thanks for your information.

@mitu I'm having this same issue.

I've ran sudo ufw disable to disable my linux firewall.

I'm thinking that the issue is with my OPNSENSE router.

Which ports should I forward to my retropie server?
